Gira S1

Secure remote access to the Smart Home.

Switching off the light, checking camera images, switching on the heating and closing the blinds remotely, as well as visualising building technology data in the form of diagrams: the Gira S1 allows users to securely connect to their KNX Smart Home while on the move thanks to the use of encrypted communication. Simply start the Gira Smart Home App or Gira HomeServer App, and the Gira S1 and Gira device portal will together take care of the rest, without the need to perform the laborious task of activating a VPN or making special settings in the router.

  • Secure remote access with encryption
  • Important messages are sent directly to the smartphone
  • Displaying a wide range of diagrams such as the yield from a PV array
  • Secure remote maintenance and control of the Gira X1 and Gira HomeServer
  • Remote maintenance of the Gira door communication system via the Gira DCS IP data interface
  • Independence from internet providers
  • Also works for IPv6 connections (e.g. Unitymedia)
  • No router settings required
  • Compliance with German data protection standards
  • Data logger to record KNX telegrams


Secure remote access ensured by encryption and German data protection standards

The remote access icon in the status bar of the app shows the user that there is secure remote access. The server for the Gira device portal is located in Germany and is subject to German data processing law, ensuring that German data protection standards are maintained. The Gira S1 has also been awarded the “Smart Home - Information Security Tested” certificate by the VDE Institute.



Gira S1 with VPN

Thanks to the VPN connection, the Gira S1 offers an additional way to securely access your customers’ system remotely. This enables remote maintenance of telephone systems, camera systems, networks and more.

  • Secure remote maintenance for KNX systems and any other systems
  • Easy, fast and stress-free setup of VPN access to a home network
  • An additional way to securely access customer systems
  • Directly connecting the Gira HomeServer to the KNX bus via the Gira S1 does away with the need for a separate bus connection interface.
  • Push notifications sent to the Gira Smart Home App
  • Full KNX Secure support, including secure tunnelling connection between Gira HomeServer and Gira S1

Important events are sent directly to the smartphone

The smoke alarm device is triggered or someone rings the door bell and you are elsewhere at that moment: it’s good to know that the Smart Home will inform you of important events. The Gira S1 enables emails including an attachment such as camera images to be sent free of charge. The sending of messages via SMS and voice message is also supported (subject to charge).


The perfect combination

The Gira S1 can be ideally combined with the Gira X1, the Gira HomeServer and the Gira door communication system. The app-based remote maintenance and remote control functions are optimally integrated in these products. The Gira S1 also enables secure remote access to all web-based visualisations.

Remote maintenance with access control

The Gira S1 enables simple remote servicing of the Smart Home. Users control who has access to their Smart Home and when. Specific authorisations can be granted via the app or using pushbutton sensors.

Need help with troubleshooting?

From firmware version 5.0 onwards, the Gira S1 is able to record KNX telegrams and thus collect important information for troubleshooting. This information can also be securely accessed remotely.

Diagram display per update

The Gira S1 is updated to firmware version 7.0. In combination with the Gira X1 and Gira Smart Home App, the update makes it possible to display various diagrams. These diagrams provide a clear overview of key data and system activities, which makes it easier to monitor and optimise the Gira Smart Home. These can be viewed on mobile devices using the Gira Smart Home App and with the Windows Client via the Gira S1 device website locally and remotely, by using the Gira S1 VPN connection.

The update is available for all devices from index level I02. It can be carried out either via the device website or using the Gira Project Assistant (GPA v5). In order to program the device in the ETS, version 7.3 of the application program is required.


How the Gira S1 works

The Gira S1 is connected to the home network via Ethernet. If an internet connection is available, the Gira S1 automatically connects to the Gira device portal. Communication between the Gira S1 and the device portal is encrypted and secured with digital certificates. Your smartphone/Gira Project Assistant or the Gira HomeServer Expert software in connection with the Gira S1 Windows Client also connects automatically to the Gira portal. Here too, communication is encrypted. The Gira portal now automatically establishes a connection between the smartphone app and the Gira S1, which in turn is connected to the Gira X1 or Gira HomeServer – all completely seamlessly for the end user. Regardless of whether the Smart Home has a IPv6 Dual-Stack Lite (e.g. from Unitymedia), LTE or UMTS Internet connection, the Gira S1 makes it easy to plan and set up remote access.

The Gira S1 must be registered in the Gira device portal before it can be used as a secure remote access module.
